Uhh...
12,000,000 / 30 = 400,000
If I wanted to be charitable, I could guess that they might have gotten their numbers mixed up talking about net and gross revenue, but... This feels like a pretty big oversight.
- kwk1 3y agoHmm, so 730k * 30 = 21.9M... with $21M and $12M figures in play, there may have been a digit transposition mistake somewhere, plus maybe truncation instead of rounding... Not that those are lesser mistakes, of course.
